Welcome

Thanks for visiting - this is a blog about creative music, or music related issues. Feel free to comment if you feel disposed to. but please identify yourself, even in a basic way, if you wish to respond. You can do this very simply either by creating a blogger identity, or by using some other means of letting the world know who you are! We should all be prepared to stand over our opinions and I'm a bit reluctant to post 'anonymous' comments. Also, I won't post any responses that contain 'flame'-type comments about anybody. I'm not interested in personal attacks on anybody, so please, by all means express your opinions, but keep it civil.

At the bottom of each post is a word or two to describe the subject matter (such as 'jazz' or 'rhythm')- if you enjoy a particular post click on this descriptive word to see more posts on the same type of subject

If you enjoy some of the posts here (and I hope you will!) and would be interested in being kept updated when new ones are added, just click on the 'Follow' button above this message and it's simplicity itself to be advised of any updates.
